Adam Zaretsky:
"Bioart: Art and Biology Studio Practices in Heritable Genome Editing"
A discussion on transgenic human germline editing, the ethics of genome engineering, and immersive bioart residencies, including insights into life science wetlabs and DIY biology.
Both speakers are affiliated with the Interactive Arts Laboratory at the Department of Audio & Visual Arts of the Ionian University, where they co-direct the TTTlabs and TTTfellows—part of the Rewilding Cultures project, co-funded by the Creative Europe Program.
